When painkillers cause headaches: interview with a neurologist

Dr Marta Waliszewska-Prosół explains the mechanism of medication overuse headache: what matters is the number of days a patient took an over-the-counter painkiller, not the number of tablets per day. Even one tablet taken on a given day counts as one day of exposure. Dosage matters for liver and kidney safety, but the risk of medication overuse headache depends on the number of days the drug is taken.
